Lowering springs and 18" wheels

Ripper · 01-09-2001, 06:09 PM

Has anyone lowered their car and gone to an 18" or larger wheel? Any problems?

My car was lowered 1 1/2" and wanted to put Saleen's 18's on. The drop was just the right amount for 18's. Don't go any more than that though and you'll be good to go. It looks sharp on the SN95's but haven't seen any of the latest generation.
